The Burial Caves of barangays Banaao and Am-am are also interesting sights to see especially if you are a historical and cultural lover. These burial caves portray how the I-Tadian buried their dead during the olden days. Certainly, you will be hearing a lot of myths, legends, and folklores surrounding these once you visit them.

A long time ago, Kabunyan took the form of a kiling (bird) and alighted on top of a mountain overlooking Bana-ao in Tadian. He was observing the people and the place, deciding if he will sow the palay (namadog) there. Suddenly, he saw something that the people practice and judged it as bad and sinful. He decided to fly somewhere else. He flew to a mountain named Am-o and sat there observing again. He looked around, west to east and north to south. He saw ricefields above Bila which they called the pandey. He flew over it and saw that it was good. He then sowed the palay seed called tagaling he was carrying in his beak. Thus, namadog san kiling ed pandey.

Tadian is home to several hidden waterfalls. These are dispersed on different barangays.
The most locally-known of these is Ub-ubanan falls, located in Barangay Sumadel. The said barangay is a 30-minutes’ drive away from Poblacion. It is a three-layered falls, gently cascading on a sliding manner. It has naturally-built pools with icy-cold and crystal-clear waters. Take a dip on these pools and you will definitely feel rejuvenated. Another waterfall in Sumadel is Pey-asan Falls. It measures around 10 meters high and has a wide and very deep pool. It also offers an enlivening effect. The local communities protect these falls since they provide water for both their domestic and irrigation needs. To date, this is one of the most popular tourist spots in Tadian.

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
